Electroactive Nanoporous Metal Oxides and Chalcogenides by Chemical Design.

Project description:The archetypal silica- and aluminosilicate-based zeolite-type materials are renowned for wide-ranging applications in heterogeneous catalysis, gas-separation and ion-exchange. Their compositional space can be expanded to include nanoporous metal chalcogenides, exemplified by germanium and tin sulfides and selenides. By comparison with the properties of bulk metal dichalcogenides and their 2D derivatives, these open-framework analogues may be viewed as three-dimensional semiconductors filled with nanometer voids. Applications exist in a range of molecule size and shape discriminating devices. However, what is the electronic structure of nanoporous metal chalcogenides? Herein, materials modeling is used to describe the properties of a homologous series of nanoporous metal chalcogenides denoted np-MX2, where M = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, and X = O, S, Se, Te, with Sodalite, LTA and aluminum chromium phosphate-1 structure types. Depending on the choice of metal and anion their properties can be tuned from insulators to semiconductors to metals with additional modification achieved through doping, solid solutions, and inclusion (with fullerene, quantum dots, and hole transport materials). These systems form the basis of a new branch of semiconductor nanochemistry in three dimensions.

A Single Model for the Thermodynamics and Kinetics of Metal Exsolution from Perovskite Oxides.

Project description:Exsolution has emerged as an outstanding route for producing oxide-supported metal nanoparticles. For ABO3-perovskite oxides, various late transition-metal cations can be substituted into the lattice under oxidizing conditions and exsolved as metal nanoparticles after reduction. A consistent and comprehensive description of the point-defect thermodynamics and kinetics of this phenomenon is lacking, however. Herein, supported by hybrid density-functional-theory calculations, we propose a single model that explains diverse experimental observations, such as why substituent transition-metal cations (but not host cations) exsolve from perovskite oxides upon reduction; why different substituent transition-metal cations exsolve under different conditions; why the metal nanoparticles are embedded in the surface; why exsolution occurs surprisingly rapidly at relatively low temperatures; and why the reincorporation of exsolved species involves far longer times and much higher temperatures. Our model's foundation is that the substituent transition-metal cations are reduced to neutral species within the perovskite lattice as the Fermi level is shifted upward within the bandgap upon sample reduction. The calculations also indicate unconventional influences of oxygen vacancies and A-site vacancies. Our model thus provides a fundamental basis for improving existing, and creating new, exsolution-generated catalysts.

Scalable salt-templated synthesis of two-dimensional transition metal oxides.

Project description:Two-dimensional atomic crystals, such as two-dimensional oxides, have attracted much attention in energy storage because nearly all of the atoms can be exposed to the electrolyte and involved in redox reactions. However, current strategies are largely limited to intrinsically layered compounds. Here we report a general strategy that uses the surfaces of water-soluble salt crystals as growth templates and is applicable to not only layered compounds but also various transition metal oxides, such as hexagonal-MoO3, MoO2, MnO and hexagonal-WO3. The planar growth is hypothesized to occur via a match between the crystal lattices of the salt and the growing oxide. Restacked two-dimensional hexagonal-MoO3 exhibits high pseudocapacitive performances (for example, 300 F cm(-3) in an Al2(SO4)3 electrolyte). The synthesis of various two-dimensional transition metal oxides and the demonstration of high capacitance are expected to enable fundamental studies of dimensionality effects on their properties and facilitate their use in energy storage and other applications.

Rapid and direct synthesis of complex perovskite oxides through a highly energetic planetary milling.

Project description:The search for a new and facile synthetic route that is simple, economical and environmentally safe is one of the most challenging issues related to the synthesis of functional complex oxides. Herein, we report the expeditious synthesis of single-phase perovskite oxides by a high-rate mechanochemical reaction, which is generally difficult through conventional milling methods. With the help of a highly energetic planetary ball mill, lead-free piezoelectric perovskite oxides of (Bi, Na)TiO3, (K, Na)NbO3 and their modified complex compositions were directly synthesized with low contamination. The reaction time necessary to fully convert the micron-sized reactant powder mixture into a single-phase perovskite structure was markedly short at only 30-40 min regardless of the chemical composition. The cumulative kinetic energy required to overtake the activation period necessary for predominant formation of perovskite products was ca. 387 kJ/g for (Bi, Na)TiO3 and ca. 580 kJ/g for (K, Na)NbO3. The mechanochemically derived powders, when sintered, showed piezoelectric performance capabilities comparable to those of powders obtained by conventional solid-state reaction processes. The observed mechanochemical synthetic route may lead to the realization of a rapid, one-step preparation method by which to create other promising functional oxides without time-consuming homogenization and high-temperature calcination powder procedures.

Green Synthesis of Transition-Metal Nanoparticles and Their Oxides: A Review.

Project description:In recent years, many researchers have begun to shift their focus onto the synthesis of nanomaterials as this field possesses immense potential that may provide incredible technological advances in the near future. The downside of conventional synthesis techniques, such as co-precipitation, sol-gel and hydrothermal methods, is that they necessitate the use of toxic chemicals, produce harmful by-products and require a considerable amount of energy; therefore, more sustainable fabrication routes are sought-after. Biological molecules have been previously utilized as precursors for nanoparticle synthesis, thus eliminating the negative factors involved in traditional methods. In addition, transition-metal nanoparticles possess a wide scope of applications due to their multiple oxidation states and large surface areas, thereby allowing for a higher reactivity when compared to their bulk counterpart and rendering them an interesting research topic. However, this field is still relatively unknown and unpredictable as the biosynthesis of these nanostructures from fungi, bacteria and plants yield undesired diameters and morphologies, rendering them as redundant when compared to their chemically synthesized counterparts. Therefore, this review aims to obtain a better understanding on the plant-mediated synthesis process of the major transition-metal and transition-metal oxide nanoparticles, and how process parameters-concentration, temperature, contact time, pH level, and calcination temperature affect their unique properties such as particle size, morphologies, and crystallinity.

Synthesis, optical imaging, and absorption spectroscopy data for 179072 metal oxides.

Project description:Optical absorption spectroscopy is an important materials characterization for applications such as solar energy generation. This data descriptor describes the to date (Dec 2018) largest publicly available curated materials science dataset for near infrared to near UV (UV-Vis) light absorbance, composition and processing properties of metal oxides. By supplying the complete synthesis and processing history of each of the 179072 samples from 99965 unique compositions we believe the dataset will enable the community to develop predictive models for materials, such as prediction of optical properties based on composition and processing, and ultimately serve as a benchmark dataset for continued integration of machine learning in materials science. The dataset is also a resource for identifying materials composition and synthesis to attain specific optical properties.

Large-scale synthesis of hybrid metal oxides through metal redox mechanism for high-performance pseudocapacitors.

Project description:Electrochemical performance and production cost are the main concerns for the practical application of supercapacitors. Here we report a simple and universally applicable method to prepare hybrid metal oxides by metal redox reaction utilizing the inherent reducibility of metals and oxidbility of for the first time. As an example, Ni(OH)2/MnO2 hybrid nanosheets (NMNSs) are grown for supercapacitor application by self-reaction of Ni foam substrates in KMnO4 solution at room temperature. The obtained hybrid nanosheets exhibit high specific capacitance (2,937?F g(-1)). The assembled solid-state asymmetric pseudocapacitors possess ultrahigh energy density of 91.13?Wh kg(-1) (at the power density of 750?W kg(-1)) and extraordinary cycling stability with 92.28% capacitance retention after 25,000 cycles. Co(OH)2/MnO2 and Fe2O3/MnO2 hybrid oxides are also synthesized through this metal redox mechanism. This green and low-cost method is capable of large-scale production and one-step preparation of the electrodes, holding promise for practical application of high-performance pseudocapacitors.

Perovskite oxides as transparent semiconductors: a review.

Project description:Traditional transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) have been widely used for various optoelectronic applications, but have the trade-off between conductivity and transmittance. Recently, perovskite oxides, with structural and chemical stability, have exhibited excellent physical properties as new TCOs. We focus on SrVO3-based perovskites with a high carrier concentration and BaSnO3-based perovskites with a high mobility for n-type TCOs. In addition, p-type perovskites are discussed, which can serve as potential future options to couple with n-type perovskites to design full perovskite based devices.

Synthesis of Mesoporous Metal Oxides by Structure Replication: Thermal Analysis of Metal Nitrates in Porous Carbon Matrices.

Project description:A variety of metal nitrates were filled into the pores of an ordered mesoporous CMK-3 carbon matrix by solution-based impregnation. Thermal conversion of the metal nitrates into the respective metal oxides, and subsequent removal of the carbon matrix by thermal combustion, provides a versatile means to prepare mesoporous metal oxides (so-called nanocasting). This study aims to monitor the thermally induced processes by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), coupled with mass ion detection (MS). The highly dispersed metal nitrates in the pores of the carbon matrix tend to react to the respective metal oxides at lower temperature than reported in the literature for pure, i.e., carbon-free, metal nitrates. The subsequent thermal combustion of the CMK-3 carbon matrix also occurs at lower temperature, which is explained by a catalytic effect of the metal oxides present in the pores. This catalytic effect is particularly strong for oxides of redox active metals, such as transition group VII and VIII metals (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni), Cu, and Ce.
